MY REVIEW

This is my first read by Lesley Jones and I thoroughly enjoyed this story. I am not one for reading blurbs, so I went into this one blindly and was intrigued from the very first chapter. I had no idea what was going to happen or where this story was going to go but I was hooked and wanted to know more.

Max is a fantastic father and his love for his sweet baby girl Layla is adorable. His “wife” and baby mama on the other hand is not so great. I am far from being on Team Whitney. Despite everything going on in Max’s life he has a fantastic support system when it comes to his family, friends and bandmates.

Billie has experienced so much trauma for her young age. From the tragic loss of her parents, to the horrors she experienced at the hands of her former employer. She has a new job and Max is her boss. They’ve known each other forever, Billie’s older brother is Max’s best friend and bandmate. She’s also had a crush on the man since she was a child.

Max and Billie had a ton of chemistry. This book was heavy on the tension and the steam when it came to those two. Billie was super sweet when it came to Layla, she loved that girl as if she was her own from the very beginning. I loved that despite everything Billie had experienced she was a fighter and she didn’t let the past ruin her future.

This story is full of forbidden things. If you’re looking for angst, drama, steamy, a sweet baby girl, great family dynamics, a nanny and a Rockstar and an age gap (she’s 22 and he is 38) this is definitely one for you.

It’s at that point I notice Billie climbing from the car. Although, if Mel hadn’t told me, I’d never have recognised the girl standing on my drive as Billie Wild.She closes the car door and turns towards me.Silence.She stares down at her feet as she moves slowly along my driveway. When she reaches the front of the car, she looks up. The bluest of blue eyes meet mine, and she stops moving.Deafening silence.No birds singing.No traffic sounds.The silence is so loud it hurts my ears.What. The. Actual. Fuck?She takes a step towards me, and my hearing returns. The gravel crunches beneath her green biker boots, a pigeon coos, brakes screech, engines rev . . . a bomb could fucking drop, but nothing, not a single thing can divert my attention from Billie Wild as she moves towards me.

Lesley was born and raised in a small working-class town in Essex, just outside of East London. She’s married with three sons and in 2006 they all moved to the other side of the world, settling on the beautiful Mornington Peninsula, about fifty kilometres outside of Melbourne, Australia.Lesley is currently ‘a stay at home mum’, but in the past, she has worked at ‘good old Mark & Spencer’ for thirteen years and as a teacher’s assistant.As well as writing, Lesley loves to read and has been known to get through four or five books a week, when she’s not writing that is.Her other interests are watching her boys play football… the round ball version. She’s happy to admit to being an addict of social media and owes a lot to her Facebook and Twitter family in promoting her book. Lesley is also rather partial to a glass or bottle of wine, a nicely chilled Marlborough Sav Blanc being her favourite.Being a born and raised Essex girl, she will happily admit being a big fan of spray tans, manis, pedis, and is regularly, waxed, tinted and sculpted, although she doesn’t own a pair of white stilettos.
